Written in the spirit of Liboff's acclaimed text on Quantum Mechanics, this introduction to group theory offers an exceptionally clear presentation with a good sense of what to explain, which examples are most appropriate, and when to give a counter-example. Primer for Point and Space Groups is an ideal introductory text for undergraduates in physics, engineering, materials science, and chemistry. It should also provide a good background for those students who go on to use group theory in such applications as nuclear and particle physics. Liboff covers the standard topics, but in a way that allows students to see the physical implications of the defined concept. Among the many introductions to group theory pitched at the undergraduate level, few can match this text for the logic and lucidity of its presentation.
